The countries of the Middle East region continue to experience major social, political, and economic shifts with uncertain outcomes. What is sure is that the people of the region have been impacted in significant – and even tragic – ways. The Christians and churches of the region have not been exempt from these shifts. What is their future? What has been their role in responding to needs, and what will their role be in what is to come? Join us to hear from the General Secretary of the Middle East Council of Churches, Dr. Michel Abs, as he offers his insight into the context and his vision for the place of Christians in the future.
This webinar is presented in collaboration with the Middle East mission offices of the following ecumenical partners: the Anglican Church of Canada, Church World Service, The Episcopal Church, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, the Presbyterian Church (USA), the Reformed Church in America, the United Methodist Church, and the United Church of Canada.

YWCA Princeton's Stand Against Racism
In light of recent events, it is more important than ever to #StandAgainstRacism and address the pattern of systematic and historic racism in this country. As an organization dedicated to eliminating racism, we have compiled resources on the history of systemic racism, policy issues, and how you can make a difference in your community and show solidarity. As the country continues to navigate the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s essential to be mindful that inequities that existed before have been amplified.
